The beach is actually not very nice. Sunset is cool though. Lots of western hippies live there. It will be good if you can ride scooter because there are a few nearby towns that are nice to visit. I really liked the night markets, you can google their locations and schedules. You will enjoy yourself especially if you like partying and psy trance.

Yes, very nice calm Beach resort town. Earned my scuba certification there, would highly recommend. One of the highest rated PADI certified companies in all of Asia is there.

I'm an extremely strong swimmer, but not necessary for scuba. As long as you can do 300 yds swimming in 10 min or something then you're good to go.

Happy to put you in touch. It's called Goa Aquatics.

Night market

Haggle. Food is very good. I liked the Portuguese rotisserie chicken. There is also a bar that plays house music.

Second the night market beach is great to drink but not particularly beautiful. Don’t eAt anything but seafood per the locals , couple cool museums . Also based on when u go a lot of the beach side restaurants and resorts won’t officially sell you booze. For the night market Wednesday is the best night and their is a huge all night rave on a hill top resort on Wednesday as well

There are many beaches , the touristy ones are not very clean but Palolem beach is clean. Night clubs (Tito’s). Feni. Eat in any shack in the beach.

Titos is a big no

Curlies on South Anjuna beach is a party. All the music is Goan trance fyi.

Vagator beach and baga beach are also fun
